B-R Schools' Chief Post-Election Acknowledgment

The following e-mail was sent to Bridgewater-Raritan “Key Communicators” including myself this morning, by the Superintendent of the Bridgewater-Raritan School District. Since it is noteworthy information for the entire Bridgewater-Raritan community as well, I’ve included a copy of it in this blog post without additional comment.

Dear Key Communicators,

As you now know, the 2009-2010 School Budget passed with 3,609 YES votes and 2,314 NO votes. I’d like to thank you for supporting public education in Bridgewater-Raritan and always spreading the good news about the district as key communicators. This election has proven to be historic with the largest voter turnout since 1962 and with one of the widest passage margins in recent memory. Communities across the district, in every polling area, have chosen to invest in education, in spite of the difficult economic times we are all experiencing. We are excited about this opportunity to maintain and improve the educational programs in Bridgewater-Raritan Regional School District.

I would like to congratulate the three individuals who won Board seats: Cindy Cullen, Patrick Breslin, and Christine Schneider. I’d also like to thank Richard Guss for his three years of outstanding service to the community in his role as Board member.

Thank you,

Michael Schilder, Superintendent
